The one between the hood & the bumper. Will it look dumb ? What if I find another one to play with and try to cut the middle part ?

Take it off and see.......it's not hard at all. Don't like it? Put it back.

I drove around for a few days like that because I was waiting on a newer grill from my car that someone was sending me and I already sent mine out. Its not even noticable to a normal person. But I think it looks BETTER having some type of grill there.

When you dont have one in, you can see the hood latch and 5 black plastic pins. (gaheetto)

there'll be a big hole where leaves and debris can now come in contact w/ your radiator; not that there isn't already, but the amount would at least double.

Anyone every done a custom grille with a piece of chicken wire stuff for the "honey comb" look?

if not for car nuts like us, who else would notice the grill??? i don't think it makes that big of a difference.

for those who have the 97-98 models, like desmat said, ive also thought about cutting out the center horizontal bar. it'll kinda make it look like the mugen bumper grill. it seems like too much work though.

Actually the debris would contact the air conditioner condenser, not the radiator. The radiatior is protected by the condenser.

I took my grill out, thinking it would look pretty cool, but when i actually looked at it afterwards, it didn't look so hot. I thought that it would look like the mugen front bumper, but it didn't. just my $0.02.
